Messages behave this way if they are less than a week old. Once they age beyond a week, dates appear.

All iMessages is 03:00 The delivery time of my messages changes every day, and changes to current time when reopened. If I scroll down long enough I find messages with older dates, so it’s not every message. How do I stop it from changing the delivery date?

iMessage changes SMS received time at 03:00 am every day Since I switched to an iPhone from an android the iMessage app resets all the messages every day at 03:00. Some conversations are more than a year old, but it consistently changes them to show that they arrived at 03:00 and then sorts them by name. Then it moves the recent conversations below the old ones. Is there a fix for this?

Messages set in the future. Yesterday I started playing a game just to spend some time. It was one of those slow paced games that take a lot of time to build anything up. I decided to see if I could exploit the time feature to speed time up. It worked but it also messed with my messages. I deleted every text sent that day but the issue still stands. On the picture you can see that the date is 09/08/2022 or August 9th. I’ve turned off iMessage and restarted my phone and turned iMessage back on and it didn’t fix it. What can I do from here.
